Poltergeist: A Pixelated Horror puts you in the shoes, or lack there of, as a ghost and those damn humans have invaded your home, seriously, how dare they! Now you’ll get to use you’re ghost powers to get them the hell out of your home so you can go back to doing whatever it is you do, float, hang out, run through walls, you know all that ghostly stuff. But first we need to rid your mansion of those humans!
As Henry B. Knight you’ll have a limited amount of powers to tackle the scaring of the humans. Try some possession, maybe throw some objects to startle them or how about spectral sightings? There’s 60 different levels that take place across four different eras so get ready to work out that ghost brain of yours. There’s also some special characters and even enemy bosses that will really put your ectoplasm to the test. Poltergeist: A Pixelated Horror is out now for PC and Mac on Steam and Desura for $7.99 with an upcoming release on PS Vita a little later.
